[SOLVED] Gtk2 applications crash on keyboard input

schizo-ri · 2014-06-05 19:53:55

Applications like Pidgin, Mousepad, Gimp are crashing when trying to input some text. I noticed this in Xfce session when trying to rearrange xfce4-panels. Same happened in Gnome-shell with GTK2 applications (Pidgin, Mousepad, Gimp...) but GTK3 (Empathy, gnome-music, gnome-terminal...) applications work fine.

This started to happen about same time after this upgrade:

What more info can I give you to help? I'm still newbie.

I'm sorry my first post is about problem and not some solution.

libxcursor-1.1.14-2 has been causing segfaults for some people: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/40658 https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=182343

Try downgrading to 1.1.14-1

pacman -U --asdeps /var/cache/pacman/pkg/libxcursor-1.1.14-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz

When posting configs, code or command output, please use [ code ] tags, not [ quote ] tags https://bbs.archlinux.org/help.php#bbcode

like this

It makes the code more readable and - in case of longer listings - more convenient to scroll through.

Yes, that's it. Thank you! I will remeber to look in Bugtracker next time.
